Card ideas for the Box & Cards; free project sheet with video tutorial


I shared this beautiful box with cards on yesterday’s blog post. You’ll see it in the video and project sheet below too. Today I’ll focus on the cards included in the pretty box.

The featured products include the Lovely Blossoms suite. This card box can fit up to 6 cards with envelopes inside. It’s super easy to make too! It’s included in the free project sheet seen below.

For these cards I used the Lovely Arrangements bundle seen here. And the Lovely Blossoms designer series paper seen here.

This first card is a fun fold card; quite unique!

It doesn’t look much different from the front. The colors include Cloud Cover, Secret Sea, Old Olive & White. Here’s a photo of it open:

The White inside layer has two extra folds in it. There’s a narrow flap adhered to the card front that let’s it open in an unusual way. The measurements are in the free project sheet below.

This next card is deceptively simple; but I added a simple trick to layering the DSP on the front:

The main image is from the Lovely Blossoms DSP. This DSP includes multiple printed elements perfect to make the focus of the card. It’s the printed Olive DSP under it I want to call your attention to. Both pieces measure 3″ X 4″. I cut the Olive DSP in half on the diagonal and added that as a layer to the flower layer. Quick and easy but unique. Instead of the traditional even layers this adds interest to your card.

Lastly is a card that shows off a special die-cut in the Lovely Arrangements bundle:

It’s Petal Pink with Secret Sea and White. That multiple circles die is so cool! It truly adds some playfulness to the card. The greeting is stamped on a circle die-cut from the Spotlight on Nature dies seen here.

My free project sheet includes these 3 cards plus the template and instructions for the card box as well. Click here to download or print it.

Below is the video tutorial for the box and tips on assembling the fun fold card at the top. Don’t forget to follow me on my YouTube Channel here or my Facebook Page here.

    First up is Mary's card featuring the Rings of Love designer series paper.  She created a double Z fun fold card!

    She used the Stylish Shapes stitched square dies to cut the flowers out of the designer paper.  No stamping needed!

  • Rings of Love Triple Panel card with video & measurements


    Here's one more card I made during last week's FB Live with the free Rings of Love designer paper in our Sale-a-Bration offering.  

    I cut a 3 1/4" X 3" piece of the designer paper and then cut it into three 1" strips.  I then layered it onto three strips of Evening Evergreen CS. 

    I textured the Crumb Cake layer with the Timber embossing folder – it's also a new Free Sale-a-Bration choice in August; with any $50 Stampin' Up! order.   

    I love how the three panels create a 'scene', making the DSP the star of the card.  See the Rings of Love DSP here.

    Measurements: 

    • Poppy Parade 5 ½”X 8 ½”
    • White is 5 ¼” X 4”, Crumb Cake 5” X 3 ¾”
    • Evergreen is 5 1/8” X 3 7/8”, DSP is 1” X 3 ¼”
    • Evergreen strips are 1 1/8” X 3 3/8”

  • Perched in a Tree Explosion card with video tutorial!


    I can't stop using the Aspen dies!  I absolutely love this tree die-cut!  

    Did you know these dies are free during August with our Sale-a-Bration promotion?  Any $100 Stampin' Up! order and they're yours free! 

    I created this card on last week's FB Live video.  You can watch it here.  

    For the card front, I simply added a layer of the Rings of Love DSP behind it for a soft background.  You can keep it this simple or create your own background!  

    However I made the inside of the card extra special with an Explosion fold. These look so difficult to do but honestly they're not!  Please watch the video; afterwards you'll want to make one!

    The left card has the Rings of Love DSP and the card on the right features the Storybook Gnomes designer paper.  For greetings I used the Soft Seedlings & Perched in a Tree stamp sets.  

    I also shared an easy ribbon trick in the video; if you have trouble with bows I hope you watch.  

    Measurements: 

    • Card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2"
    • DSP – 3 7/8” X 5 1/8”, inside is 8” square
    • Greeting strip 1” X 4”
    • White 4” X 5 ¼” & inside is 3 ½” square
